Natural Weave - This technique is what African American celebrities are wearing oppose to the lace front which does not allow your scalp to breathe. Lace Fronts are designed for entertainers who wears them temporarily and for people who suffer from severe hair loss that wears them permanently because it is attached with skin adhesives to the scalp due to 50% - 100% baldness!
Natural weaves were displayed by Sanaa Lathan, Nia Long, and Gabriel Union on the front cover of Essence Magazine December 2007 issue and Halle Berry Natural weave was featured in Instyle Magazine. This Weave technique will never be outdated just innovated! Razor cutting and adding color highlights to your desire style is what’s happening NOW!
Rubberband - This technique is best for clients who have damaged hair that is either relaxed, curly not kinky,?naturally wavy or straight. I apply a reconstructor mask onto your hair and?then rubberband your hair into plaits then baked the reconstructor into hair until dry, afterwards I sew wefts of human hair into a beautiful style. When your weave is removed you will see noticeable results of improved condition of your hair.
Butterfly - This technique is for relaxed hair or hair that can easily be molded or wrapped wet or dry. I stitch a diamond pattern to the area of hair that is molded or wrapped and then I sew wefted human hair directly to your super flat foundation.
Interlock - This technique can be worn as a full head weave or for those who want just a few tracks added. This method is sewing anchors with thread and needle then attaching wefted human hair to the anchors. Another method that lays flat.
Leaf Integration - A removable weave ( custom wig ). This is customized to the style you choose to fit your head measurements, features, and lifestyle! This method is hand stitching wefted human hair to a elastic net cap then attached to a foundation preferrably braids for this technique. After unit is attached I cut and style your hair. This technique is highly recommended to those individuals who loves wearing weaves but hates the timely takedowns and desires fabulous different looks.
Cross-Stitch - This is a wonderful cornroll design for those who have natural hair or you just don’t want to leave any of your hair out and you want your weave to lay flat witout a net attached. This is cornrolling your hair into circular patterns it could be 2-7 circular patterns depending on the size of your head; thickness of hair; and the length of your hair.
Christina Method - This technique is performed by weaving three cords of thread from a machine to create a flat foundation for wefts of human hair to be sewn onto your hair.
Raw Edge Short Hair Extensions - This technique takes 7 hours to 9 hours long to sewn in , style and cut. Time depends on the size of your hair, how many colors you desire and the precison short hair cut. This method is for short hair cuts it can be sewn unto your hair as a fixed weave or it can be removable then it becomes a custom leaf integration unit. Tracks are split and sewn together seamlessly to create a foundation for a seamless cutting edge short hair cut. So if you desire short hair but you do not want to sacrifice your own this a great technique. If your a jet setter or a trend setter and desire ever changing looks this technique is for you.
Pony-Tail Method - Your natural hair is recommended to be at least 4 - 5 inches long to have a flawless ponytail design. 1 - 2 inches of hair from your hairline is left out the rest is braided or either locked down using the christina method then human hair is sewn into a ponyail design. Excellent for the working woman who desires a very feminine look or you just want to add length and fullness to your natural hair.
Net Weave - Your hair is braided down and then a strong netting is applied to your braided down foundation next human hair is sewn unto the netting in a pattern to achieve your desired hair style. Hair extensions are then cut and styled. Net weave styles varies depending if it’s closed up or left open for your onw hair to blend in for a more natural appearance. The purpose of the net is to add extra support to your foundation and it also extends the life of your weave.
Bomani - Your own hair is twisted into falt bed twists then they are stitched down for reinforcement to create a flat foundation. Human hair is sewn into the flat twists. This technique ia an option oppose to the conventioal cornroll braid foundation. it lays very flat and lasts up to 8 weeks.
*Bookmark* - The foundation can be done by cornrolling, flat twists, interface, and/or the christina method, but the human hair wefts are stitch down by bookmarking the wefted hair. This technique alleviates the cone shape that you see when you get the typical circle closure which is not best on weaves that are to be left in for a long time because the weave begins to look like a cone hat.
Monkey Stitch - Tracks are bonded and then stitch down for reinforcement. This technique lasts for (4 weeks). The tracks are placed between your own hair to create a natural apperance.
Bonded Sensation Cap Weave - Great for short hair styles. Your own hair is braided down and then a double cap is placed on your head. Human hair is then bonded to the cap. After bonding is completed your hair is cut and styled.
